    Dang ... the cloud cover in that pic makes it look like God don't like Ohio-ians much ... & is about to kick yer butts.

    Did you adjust your mpg calculations for the bigger tires?

    Haha no I haven't really adjusted for that but I guess I probably should consider that.Wasn't really thought I ever explored. Either way you put it I'm not getting too far on a tank because it goes fast. Trip of 560 miles from Madison, WI to my father's home in Ohio, I fill up twice because the yellow fuel light is scary.

    Yah. The adjusted figures are prolly 11-12 rather than 10-11 ... not a huge difference. My 33's cause about a 10% error on the ODO.

    Now here's the scarey part: you get about the same mpg as I do in the 7T RV (unless I'm 'toad-ing' the VX).
